Subject: RE: Declutter (x-hoarders), Fitness Apr-June 2015
Not much decluttering going on at home, but I did get rid of a bunch of antique paper clutter and abandoned lost and found items from several years ago at work today. We have files and files of current interpretive programs and outlines dumped randomly in a box on the desk of the little porch office that no one ever uses (MINE NOW!) and several file drawers full of obsolete park records going back to the late 70s and early 80s. I emptied one out by dumping the entire contents of a huge expanding folder containing water quality records for our little corner of Casco Bay from the mid 80s. They were all copies, the original info long ago sent to The Friends of Casco Bay's Baykeeper program. Next rainy day we'll organize all the folders on the desk and put them in the drawer.

I also consolidated two boxes' worth of invasive insect handouts into one and culled all the firewood handouts to leave at one of the parks that has camping. We don't, and we don't allow wood fires in the grills, either, so no need for us to be holding onto things we'll never use. In the process, I laid claim to a copy paper box to help my organization efforts at home. Perfect size for storing my comic book collection, and that will free up a plastic stackable storage container to hopefully consolidate some of my cross stitch supplies.

On the fitness end, went for a run this AM for the first time in two months. Felt amazing afterwards and I'm already looking forward to my next run on Wednesday.
